MY first return to my alma mater since graduating in 1990. 23 years since I have visited the lawn.

Graduate of University of Virginia 1990. Then went on to medical college, but that is another decade. On with the show...

We pick up episode 2 after The Baltimore show, which the next day we drove from to Charlottesville, where we settled in the day before the show.Now on to day of the show.After driving a short distance to the venue, we parked then gathering our things and headed to arena. Approximately about a mile away. As I was mingling in front of arena before entering, I was informed that The Ch'ville po po were following me, as I do have a watchful mule to be my eyes for such events. Maybe following me because i was doing some adjustments to my outfit....suspected i was bringing something into show--I went back to my car, put my " recording stuff" in the car then entered the arena right in front of them with NOTHING. Went to our seats- but i had kept 2 sets of tickets and scanned just one going in, so my " taper friendly" sidekick went back out of arena then re-packed Taper gear (because if they saw me again they might suspect something), so we go into arena separately, and entered the arena a second time using OUR SECOND set of tickets -using other ticket--just in the chance something like this would happen- she got me the taper gear by going back to car (ah yeah, the car is about a mile away parked) then coming in again and just within minutes I actually set up at my seat, (first time doing that)with my neighbors now knowing that i am recording and they were cool with it. So i was able to hit RECORD just in time right before PJ started. that is why i only recorded with one rig because i usually use 2 rigs, but like i stated my partner had to go back to the car to retrieve a set up and it was faster to pick up just one,thus using the Schoeps CCM41 for the Ch'ville show. There is another story for this Charlotte show. It is a hell of a story, and the fact we did Baltimore, Charlottesville, and charlotte traveling by Plane and car.Yeah. I had 2 pairs of hard tickets. I can sometimes assess what seat might be best, or in the case of Charlottesville I used the second set of tickets so bluntforcetraumamomma could then leave the arena get the taper gear-hide it- then re enter arena using the SECOND pair of tickets, this worked out so well, it makes for a great story. BFTmomma had to leave arena run a mile to get to the car parked then get back--just in time for me to set up at seat and hit RECORD.it is very expensive--but i guess I am addicted to recording. I really enjoy PJ and i always capture the shows i go to. I owe a heap of money now. BUT i can also relive every minute of the shows forever.
